Scream är en hit av amerikanska sångarna och syskonen Michael Jackson och Janet Jackson Singeln namngiven Scream/Childhood var den första singeln från Michael Jacksons nya album HIStory. Låten ansågs vara kontroversiell då det var den första Michael Jackson låten som innehöll svordomar. Att det är den första låten efter pedofilanklagelserna mot Michael Jackson 1993 märks också då det är en ganska aggressiv låt, något som även gäller många andra låtar från samma album.

Musikvideon
Musikvideon till Scream är ganska unik då den faktiskt spelades in med riktig rekvisita och kulisser inte med Bluescreen som kanske skulle vart det enklaste och billigaste. Videon är Sci-fi inspirerad och utspelar sig i ett rymdskepp där de båda Jacksons helt enkelt dansar, slår sönder saker och flyger runt i nollgravition. Scream videon är till idag med sin inspelningskosntad på 7 Miljoner dollar världens mest påkostade musikvideo.



Lyrics

Michael)
Tired of injustice
Tired of the schemes
These lies are disgustin'
So what does this mean? (Daddy)
Kicking me down
I got to get up
As jacked as it sounds
The whole system sucks (Daddy it)

(Janet)
Peek in the shadow
Come into the light
You tell me I'm wrong
Then you better prove you're right
You're sellin out souls but
I care about mine
I've got to get stronger
And I won't give up the fight
(Michael)
With such confusions don't it make you wanna scream
(Janet: Make you wanna scream)
Your bash abusin victimize within the scheme
(Janet)
You try to cope with every lie they scrutinize
(Both)
Somebody please have mercy
Cause I just can't take it
Stop pressurin me
Just stop pressurin me
Stop pressurin me
Make me wanna scream
Stop pressurin me
Just stop pressurin me
Stop pressurin me
Make you just wanna scream

(Michael)
Tired of you tellin the story your way
You're causin' confusion
You think it's okay (damn it!)

(Janet)
You keep changin' the rules
While I keep playin' the game
I can't take it much longer
I think I might go insane

(Michael)
With such confusion don't it make you wanna scream
(Janet: Make you wanna scream)
Your bash abusin victimize within the scheme
(Janet)
You find your pleasure scandalizin every lie
(Both)
Oh father, please have mercy cause I just can't take it
Stop pressurin me
Just stop pressurin me
Stop pressurin me
Make me wanna scream
Stop pressurin me
Just stop pressurin me
Stop fuckin with me
Make me wanna scream

(Janet)
"Oh my God, can't believe what I saw
As I turned on the TV this evening
I was disgusted by all the injustice
All the injustice"
(Michael)
"All the injustice"

(News Man)
"A man has been brutally beaten to death by
Police after being wrongly identified as a
robbery suspect. The man was
an 18 year old black male..."

(Michael)
With such collusions don't it make you wanna scream
(Janet: Make you wanna scream)
Your bash abusin' victimize within the scheme
(Janet)
You try to cope with every lie they scrutinize
(Both)
Oh brother please have mercy'Cause I just can't take it
Stop pressurin me Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin me Makes me wanna scream
Stop pressurin me Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin me Makes me wanna scream
Stop pressurin me Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin me Makes me wanna scream
